Does platonic friendship REALLY do exist?

Question

im a lil skeptical about purely truly platonic friendship. Please.. educate me.

Answer 1

Sure. I have plenty of male friends that i have no desire to sleep with...and they have no desire to sleep with me (straight male friends..not just g*y friends). h**l, I live with one of my closest guy friends and his girlfriend. They happily love each other and there is no interest between him and i except who can get the higher score in a video game. Have another male friend that i have known for about 11 years now and we're just close friends. We tell each other everything, goof off, etc...but no intimate interest in each other.

men and women aren't obligated to s***w each other anytime they hang out. It's very possible to simply be just friends.

Answer 2

Between a man and a woman, uhm no not really only if one or both of them are completely turned off by the other physically. For instance you could have a platonic relationship with the elephant man.

Answer 3

It does exist, but it is rare. You got to find the perfect spot between the two of you. If you both get really good friends and close, so chances are that there may be times when you both are together and cosy and things might happen. But other than that, it is fine. It is such a good feeling ti having someone from opp s*x a good friend because you have so much to share and learn that the experience is just amazing.

Answer 4

My best friend is a guy and im a girl. We tell eachother everything..even stuff we do with other guys/girls. he is better then most all of any girls and the best friend i could ask for. But i could never be interested in him because we are just that close.

i love him with all of my heart but you have to realize before you get to far into the relationship if it is honestly going to work for things to go further

Answer 5

I have a close friend of mine living with me. I started to develop some sort of feeling for her, but we talked it out and both agree we are better off being friends. Now I really (honestly) have no intimate feelings toward her.

So there is potential for problem in a platonic friendship, but as long as the two of you can talk stuff out it's fine.
